Weight loss Check-in Group: Weigh in for 11/29/18

I'm starting this for Karen.

Karen was in the hospital overnight due to feeling very weak today. Not a serious issue, just feeling very weak. Karen is doing well now, but is in a facility doing some rehabilitation related to ms. She will be there for a couple of weeks.

I gained 2.6 pounds . Even knowing that Thyroids were to blame I was somewhat alarmed when I weighed in at 114.4 pounds and so used 2 Thanksgiving dinners and plenty of leftovers last week to correct that - lol. I also adjusted the medicine that I am taking for Thyroids and am well pleased with the results. Since I seem to yo-yo so much I will attempt to stay the same this week.

Mamabug - Great loss ! I am glad to hear that you are feeling better. And Thank You for filling in for Karen .

Too bad about Karen! Glad you were willing and able to fill in, Faith!

I'm still at 117 and quite pleased with that because for a while there I was wavering between 117 and 118, even hitting 119 on some days. The goal is still to lose a few more pounds but Rome wasn't built in a day....
